Parkland Father Arrested During Gun Law Hearing Protest.
TL;DR
Manuel Oliver, father of a victim of the Parkland school shooting, was arrested after disrupting a House Oversight and Accountability Committee hearing on gun regulation. Oliver and his wife were removed from the hearing room for shouting at Rep. Pat Fallon. Rep. Maxwell Frost criticized Fallon's decision to remove the Olivers from the hearing and eventually walked out of the hearing alongside several gun violence prevention advocates in attendance. Oliver has become an outspoken gun violence prevention advocate in the wake of his son's death.
